About The Company &

- Audio Engineering Culture

Voice is becoming the primary interaction layer for next-generation consumer and enterprise applications. As a high-growth AI technology enterprise, we build ultra-low latency, highly natural conversational voice AI agents, real-time transcription engines, and expressive voice synthesis systems across multiple Indian and global languages. Our audio AI engineering culture is built around advanced digital signal processing (DSP), neural vocoders, acoustic modeling, and real-time audio stream streaming. We train and deploy state-of-the-art speech models that operate under strict latency budgets for live voice interactions. If you are passionate about advanced audio machine learning and acoustic engineering, this is your arena.

Position Overview An expert, hands-on Senior AI Speech Engineer is needed to architect, train, and optimize our next-generation Speech-to-Text (Automatic Speech Recognition - ASR) and Text-to-Speech (Neural TTS &
